·   PREDICTION  A logical guess at future events in the story.

*** Be sure to include a QUOTE from the book in your paragraph ***

4. Once you have posted your comment, go back and read through your classmate’s comments about the books they have been reading and comment on one of their posts by asking "I wonder..." questions; or if you have read the book you may make more specific comments. Be specific as to which classmate you are responding to.  You must read your classmate’s entries and make a meaningful comment on their work in order to receive an A.
